1
Check your owner's manual for diagrams and definitions.
You'll need this information when you put the elliptical back together.
You'll also want definitions in case you need to call the customer
support line for assistance.

2
Be aware that the resistance is often the part that requires
repair. Resistance is managed magnetically, so often if the machine is
working, but the resistance isn't setting correctly or at all, check the
bolts that secure the magnets. If they are loose, the resistance will
slip. If the bolts are fine, check the magnets themselves by using a
refrigerator magnet and see if it is attracted or repelled by the your
fridge magnet. If not, the magnets have de-magnetized and need to be
replaced.

3
Consider that if the foot pedals are attached with bolts,
any slipping can be fixed with a quick use of the wrench. But if the
foot pedals are damaged or breaking, order new foot pedals (see
Resources below) rather than run the risk of a pedal breaking while
you're on the machine.

4
Check the hand bars. While not all people use them, as they
can elevate your heart rate by up to 20 percent, they can become worn,
too. While loose hand bars typically need a simple tightening of the
bolt, be sure not to overtighten as the bolts can break.

5
Know that if the axis is bent, it's likely you need a new
machine. The axis is the central alignment of the elliptical. If the
machine was used by a person who is over the maximum weight limit, it
can be bent or damaged. It's not an easy fix and a better idea is to
upgrade to a sturdier machine.

Got a Sole elliptical machine? Is it displaying a NEED LUBE error message when you turn it on? Tyler at Sole service told me this is a software bug. It appears every 180 miles of usage, and it was really only intended for treadmills, not ellipticals.
You can clean and lubricate the rails and wheels - and you should - but the error message won't go away. Instead, you can get rid of it by resetting the odometer. First, press and hold the Start, Enter, and Stop buttons for five seconds to enter engineering mode. Use the arrow keys to select FUNCTIONS, then select ODO RESET and press Enter. Turn the machine off and on again, and voila, no error message.
Thanks Tyler! Happy exercising!
